Teresa, thank you for inviting me into this very interesting discussion. I was told after my last colonoscopy that I have diverticulosis. Another worry.
To my knowledge a CT scan of abdomen is more useful when looking at the bowel- kind of gives a 3 dimensional picture.
MRI and CT can complement each other.
In my own experience at Mayo Clinic I would have both at the same visit.

I had a CT about 3 months ago, now after getting MRI, the doctor wants me to get a CT scan. I am going to light up as my pocket book gets lighter. Do I need to do all this?
